We don’t know. The universe might be eternal, there may be no beginning. We need (at least) a quantum theory of gravity. But the laws of Nature as we understand them today are compatible with the Universe simply existing. Why is there something rather than nothing? Why not?

This still has nothing to do with a super natural cognition which science is running away from as a requirement. Stephen Hawking, "A God is not required".

It does not matter if "all this" came from nothing, or is the result of the death of prior events. What is not needed as a gap answer is a sky wizard.
